What We Do

Our Brands

Zambeef has 10 brands that produce a basket of quality products that can be found in a variety of outlets conveniently located across the country and in neighbouring countries. We pride ourselves on having something for everyone.

Zambeef Farming

The Zambeef Farming division, based at Huntley, Chiawa, and Mpongwe Farms, grows wheat, maize, and soya beans, crops that are essential for food security and the economy. These crops start the chain from farm to family, ensure a steady flow of essential grains to support Zambia's food needs, and help us to regularly supply maize to our stockfeed plant and external stakeholders such as the Food Reserve Agency. A good yield starts with careful planning. We continuously test and balance soil chemistry and correct its physical properties to ensure it supports strong crop growth. Proper irrigation, especially for wheat, is crucial, as it influences how well the plants use nutrients and how they deal with pests and diseases. In 2022, we announced a US$ 100 million expansion plan to double our crop production, which will enhance our stockfeed, meat production and processing facilities, and retail operations.
